| Let's play guess the repair cost
I got hit by a delivery van pulling into traffic just as I drove past.
Let's play a game to guess the total cost of repairs.
I'll get an estimate in a day or two and post the answer.
Winner is the person who gets closest, without going over. The lucky RS member gets a thanks on their post from all the other contestants. 
I realize the photo isn't great but if you have questions specifically, I can answer them.
Car is a 2020 Audi A3.
A few other details:
Tire isn't damaged
A few scuffs/scratches on the rim
Car still drives straight, I don't suspect alignment issues, but TBD
Parking sensors still seems to work fine  |

wheel re-finish -- $300
quarter panel + bumper repair + re-finish + repaint -- $900
So total = $1200
If there are alignment issues, then it's a whole different guessing game, depending on what got nudged out of tolerence.

It highly depends on which shop you send it to. Also do you have PPF?
I'd say blend door bumper, plus the dent pull and repair, you are probably looking at $4500
Add 1200 if you have PPF.

These things always end up costing way more than I expect, so I'll say $8350.
